The Loaf Instead Of Crumb Every so often some “expert” tails of how some particular person has been bamboozled into buying the wrong kind of insurance. or spent his money for a contract in the expectation of getting some- thing he didn’t receive, Scattered abuses of insurance can undoubtedly be found. But, and here's the real point age policyholder un insurance has given the aver- rivaled service. It's made it possible for him to adequately provide for his old age and protection of his dependents at a low monthly or annual cost. It isn't perfect-—even as human beings aren't perfect—but, by and large, it's an institution in which every American can take pride. It stands as the loaf of bread for the average man, instead of the crumb. Independents Favor Independence The progressive independent merchant in this country is an excellent business man. He has come a long way since the cross-roads day of mer- chandising—and standard of with customers an unexcelled service. He's met every form of competition He's been prompt to adopt methods and equipment that marked an improvement over the old. He's realized that the best way to get new business and to keep it is to give the public a better dea The progressive independent want special favors, legislative or otherwise. He doesn’t want the law to step in and burden his competitors —he’s perfectly willing to take his chances, betling on his qualities of energy, efliciency and ability to pull him through. He knows too that you can’t [launt naiural law by trying to prevent progress. he’s given his success. Are You Incompetent? How would you like a group of officeholders to tell you who can and who cannot act as administrator or executor of your ectsate? You wouldn’t like it posed in ~but under legislative measures pro- Oregon, that is exactly what would happen to Oregon citizens. The proposals in Oregon illustrate the political trend to restrict freedom of action of private citizens. Growing pol- itical control of the individual is like an epidemic—it spreads from stale to state, and from nation to nation. If the public (you and I) were fully awake to this insidi- ous undermining of personal rights in our own country, we would boot elected troublemakers high, wide and hand- Some. The Oregon situation is just an incident in the growing trend. The public must awaken to the danger it faces, if it wishes to retain even a semblance of the liberty and indi- vidual choice of action that our citizens have enjoyed in the past. . . Centenarian Wisdom In 1922 the late Senator Cornelius Cole was 100 vears old, and Los Angeles gave him a banquet, at which, his mind as alert as ever, he spoke. He said, according to the Saturday Evening Post. that he had message for those present, and that it had been impressed on him through long experience: only one namely, that human liberties were won in this country at heavy sacri- fice of blood and fortune; that liberty is easily lost; that we must be ready to fight again if necessary to keep it; that we must never suffer any man to arrogate to himself the pow- ers of a king, emperor or dictator.
